January – Mental Wellness

How do you define ‘mental wellness’? What does it mean—and what does a person who is mentally stable look and behave like? The name of this month’s second-essential-oil-blend special came to mind immediately! Resilience! YES! Such a person would be well-balanced and able to handle—and handle well—whatever life (and people and/or circumstances) may send their way! Such a person would be known for their kindness, their compassion, and for the genuine love they have for themselves and those around them. I am fortunate—and very blessed—to have many such people in my life.

Personal note: I recently had a birthday. It could have been hard due to grief and loss that will be forever associated in our family with that day and with Thanksgiving day and week. However, my phone kept ‘beeping’ with messages, and every time I opened my e-mail or social media, there were a dozen friends or so checking in and lifting my spirits, and offering me courage and peace. What a beautiful few days I have had!

This month’s specials targeting ‘mental wellness’ and the things I will try to teach you about these remedies that I consider nothing less than ‘gifts from Heaven’ are my way (and Butterfly’s way) of telling you how much we love and appreciate you all and your faith in us as you let us try to provide for you some of the things that have blessed the lives of my family (and so many others) for so long!

September – Respiratory Health & Immunity

As fall rolls in and the air turns crisp, it also brings along an unwelcome guest—“sickness season.” Cooler weather means respiratory viruses and other illnesses tend to pop up more often. Kids in school are exposed to all kinds of germs (and generously share them at home). Plus, when it’s chilly outside, we spend more time indoors and closer to others, making it easier for germs to spread. To make matters worse, cooler temps and drier air create the perfect environment for viruses to stick around longer, both in the air and on surfaces.

The best way to stay healthy is to give your immune system a boost before sickness season kicks into high gear. That way, you can avoid, or at least lessen, the bugs that come your way. But life happens, and sometimes those best-laid plans don’t pan out. That’s where the products in this blog come in. They can help you stay well, bounce back faster, and make those symptoms a whole lot easier to handle.

August – Attention, Focus & Anxiety

The end of summer and the upcoming return to school for children, teens, and college students can be a stressful time for everyone involved, including parents. This seems to be true to some extent, no matter the age of the child or even how well the previous school year went. And then, the school day usually requires the student to focus and pay attention while sitting at a desk—something many children find quite difficult. Then there are the issues of getting homework done and back to school with the children, young or old!

The remedies focused on as specials and offered at discounted prices, were chosen with these issues in mind. However, as you will quickly see from the product descriptions, they address energy levels, the ability to focus and pay attention, and handling anxiety from any cause and in any type of situation.
